2 Installation and Startup

2.1 Install/Replace the Battery

3. Press the Reset button to initialize the transmitter. If replacing a

battery, the transmitter’s most recent programming will be
restored upon initialization.

4. If replacing the battery, reassemble the housing per section 2.5;

otherwise continue with installation.

2.2 Select the Frequency Band

EchoStream products are able to use a range of radio frequencies,
and must be configured for your geographic area. To configure the
transmitter:
1. Place a selection jumper on the appropriate frequency band

selection pins (D).

• Place the jumper on the left two pins, marked NZ, to set the

frequency range to 921-928 MHz for New Zealand.

• Place the jumper on the right two pins, marked AU, to set the

frequency range to 915-928 MHz for Australia.

• Leave the jumper off the pins to set the frequency range to

902-928 MHz for North America.

2. Press the Reset button to complete configuration.

Note: Only devices set for use in North America are configured for
UL installations.

2.3 Select Delay Option

The EN1249 can be set to provide a ten second delay between the
removal of the trigger bill and alarm transmission, allowing users to
replace the bait bill if it is inadvertantly removed. When the delay
option is not set, an alarm will be transmitted two seconds after the
bill is removed.
1. To set the EN1249 to provide a ten second trigger delay, place

a selection jumper on the delay selection pins (C) and press
Reset.

2. To cancel the ten second trigger delay, remove the selection

jumper from the delay selection pins and press Reset.

2.4 Register the EN1249

The EN1249 must be registered with the system in order to be
monitored and supervised. When supervised, the EN1249 will
send a check-in message to the receiver every three minutes.
Each transmitter has a unique factory-programmed identification
number. Refer to the receiver’s installation instructions for details
on registering a transmitter.
1. When prompted by the receiver to reset transmitter, press the

Reset button.

1. Hook the top of the housing into the housing tabs on the bottom

of the housing and swing closed

response.

2.6 Mount the Billtrap Transmitter

The EN1249 is shipped with Dual Lock™ repositionable fasteners
already installed on the back of the transmitter. To mount the

2. Peel the non-adhesive backing from the repositionable

fasteners attached to the EN1249.

3. Press the EN1249 to the mounting surface with sufficient

pressure to ensure the tamper button is depressed against the
mounting surface.

the EN1249 can be repositioned as necessary.
